Not really.

Yes, thank you; I'm just wondering how little one can get away with, and why
it seemed to be needed only for the first five or six track transitions on
the CD.
Timothy Stockman wrote to me privately that a CD mastering engineer once told
him that 0.2 seconds of silence is advisable at the start of any CD track for
this very reason (so how are segues done?). I was able to get away with less
(11 MD frames), but I guess the required duration depends on the playback
system. For example, the Deluxe CD player software with Microsoft Windows
98 Plus always clips the start of the next track's audio, while the regular
Windows CD player program and all the hardware CD players I have were very
happy with one-eighth of a second of leading silence.
